BANCROFT STAR IN ADVENTUROU “WORLD, FLESH" Miriam Hopkins Plays Op-| posite Swashbuckling Hero at Capitol George Bancroft in a swash- buckling adventure story, “World and the Flesh,” with Miriam Hop- kins playing the leading role 8ppo- site him, is the star at the Capi- tol theatre tonight. The story takes one to Russia in the days of the Red Revolution. George Bancroft, two fisted cap- tain of a sailing vessel, becomes a now power in the Black Sea gion. He and his men take ov the town of Theodosia, capture t nobles there, and make brutish overtures of love to the nobles'| women. One of these, Miriam Hop- | kins, arouses Bancroft by her spi ited contempt for him and hi i kind. Royalist | Cossacks arrive, capture Bancroft, and take him and the noble refugees aboard their ship, setting sail at once for Sebastopol, a port still controlled by Tsarists.) Chained to the stoke-hole, Ban-| croft breaks 100s2, inspires the crew to mutiny, and takes over the ship. His indomitable display of mastery wins the admiration, and cubsequent love of Miriam. The ship is brought to Theodosia, now in the hands of the Red tri bunal, Miriam, as a Tsarist, is sen- tenced to die. Next morning, Ban-| croft, by a clever ruse, effects her| jail-break. But he is accused of treason for this, and sentenced to| die. The climax comes when Mi-; riam, by a counter-move, secures the freedom of her man. Col. Alexis Davidoff, direct des- cendant of David Bey, one of the| early Russian conquerors, was a| technical director on “The World and the Flesh.” HARDINGS BAG FIVE | BEARS, TWO WOLVES | IN YAKUTAT REGION With a bag of five bears and; two wolves to their credit, Federal| Judge Justin W.

But changing stars are no longer unusual in Hollywood. Old-timers can recall M bo’s first arrival in the film capital, back in 1924. She was then a rather shy immigrant girl But s direc- tors, press agents, roles that fitted her like a glove, and the acquisition of the Famous Garbo bob, made her into the glamorous creature she is today. Nor is she the only star to change her course. Consider Clara Bow, who flashed to stardom by her portrayal of the madcap hoyden. Clara had a long layoff after her cele- brated law battle with Daisy De Voe. When she staged a comeback, she was not the same Bow. Instead we saw a lady of dignity and charm, who might have played the role of tragedy queen. Then there is Jean Harlow, who also left her original orbit and attained success on another course. Miss Harlow began her picture career as a shy ingenue. But her lovely platinum hair was seen by directors as a heaven-sent asset for “vamp” roles. So Jean became a vamp and climbed to fame and fortune. One could go on reciting instances of film queens who found it profitable to chart new courses—maybe Miss Garbo’s latest metamor- MRS.
